I've finally sent Alaundo a much-needed update to the Goblins of the Realms article (http://www.candlekeep.com/library/articles/goblins.htm) that I promised him a long time ago. It should be posted some time in the coming months.
The list is up to 98 individual goblins from over 50 different FR canon sources. Being so close to such a nice round number like 100 has prompted me to post this appeal for goblins I may have missed. If anyone knows of any goblins from the Realms that I've neglected I would greatly appreciate if you'd message me with the relevant info.
Sources that I haven't been able to lay my hands on include:
Dungeon #63 article "Huzza's Goblin-o-War" by Paul F. Culotta
FR supplement Skullport, any info on stats for Nyk and Nok plus other goblins (if there are any) [edit 5/10/06 - I have acquired this]
Elminster's Ecologies: The Stonelands and the Goblin Marches
[edit 5/10/06 - I have acquired this]
Faiths and Avatars, info on the goblin pantheon if it's not duplicated in any of the other books on deities [edit 5/10/06 - question answered]
Thanks so much in advance for any help you can lend. The vast amount of FR source material is too much for one goblin to go through by himself 
Also, I'd like to send a request to the guys and gals who breathe life into the Realms -- the authors! How about giving a name to the occasional goblin character (before he gets cleaved in two in the next paragraph)? At least one reader would be grateful.  |

I bit the bullet and bought the remaining 2nd ed. downloads of modules that I didn't own (Bloodstone series and Swords of the Iron Legion). Also found a few in old editions of Dungeon.
I'd still like to know about Dungeon #63 if anyone's got it. |

The list has increased to 116 goblins and 44 tribes. Thanks all for your help. I will send an updated version of Goblins of the Realms in the near future.

I never heard of this good natured goblin, Nojheim. Where can I read about him?
Never mind, just read the answer in the goblin article  |

Much thanks to the Sage. Zeejill brings the total to 99! Almost there...
And thanks to Alaundo for graciously providing a forum to present the fruits of my research.

As for Skullport references to goblins...
- Haffa's group of goblins active in the Lower Port
- Zeejill, a half-blind rheumatic goblin active in the Scullery for the Dungeons of Skullport
- No stats for Nyk or Nok. They just grow mushrooms in the dungpiles beneath the landmark of the Raging Bull.

There are no goblin pantheon details in F&A. You're better off looking in Faiths & Pantheons, 2e's Monster Mythology and the PS supplement On Hallowed Ground.
